Tinker Toy Inventor

Greetings to everyone.

Who knew seven dollars could go so far? The partial Tinker Toy set Rebecca found for Xavier last month has become his favorite toy. This toy set eclipses even his passion for Hot Wheels.

Here, Xavier sits inside his dryer, its blower in back and ajar door in front. His washing machine (behind and to the left) has an agitator and a lid (it's a top-loader). To the left he has a drying rack—we have two in our laundry room and they get used heavily, so he informed us he needed to build one.

I would like to say he thought up how to build these items on his own, but he did have some adult input and assistance. He built the fan for the dryer and the agitator for the washer. He wanted a box for both, but could not figure out how to build them from the limited parts in the toy set.

The adult assist came in building the boxes. We used another toy set, which just happened to fit with the Tinker Toys.
